    incoming = pop3.live.com
    outgoing = smpt.live.com

    this setup Is working fine for my hotmail account , your original post had a capital "S" on the smpt , but I'm guessing it was a typo.

    Your sure your passwords are all entered correctly etc?

    Just got it working this second, i think the port may have been incorrect on the smtp! Now to attack setting up my other one!! (think its an exchange account)

    Thanks!!
